| Research Abstract |
A recent increase in dental implant surgeries will increase a risk for post-operative neuropathic pain. The aim of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the influence of dental implant surgeries on pain thresholds. It was found that the decrease in the pain threshold not only in the nerve area of the implant surgery but also in the adjacent nerve areas after the surgical procedures was a common finding even though patients did not complain of their pain.
